Quick on the draw there Rick. Steve sounded ready for that interview. It was great!

I have a hard time 'believing' this wasn't set up in advance. At the most, I can believe Perry might have gotten a surprise phone call from the DJ off air a day or two prior to this interview. I mean ireland isn't exactly in the same time zone as California, you know?

Still, good to hear his voice. He sounds thrilled with the attention he's getting again. Must be bittersweet though.

LOL there ya go Andrew, all you gotta do is call him up.

Just gimmie the number and it shall be done!

And yes, the interview was set up, but fun nevertheless. Pity the DJ couldn't shut up more...typical...

i have deciphered the particular numbers that correspond with these beeps when dialing.. i will call
him in the morning.. im really really thinking about recording it..

Thanks for posting this,Rick!

Fun interview.I always thought that SP should have done a radio show at one point.He has a great radio voice.

Steve Perry should be a fucking writer. He wrote so many good songs.He could write some good plots for movies and Pilots.He is so much smarter than Friga and Neal. I respect him more now than I ever did before.

I totally agree with that. I bet he could write some great stories.

Couldn't agree more. He's too creative not to be writing SOMEthing.

(He'd have to stop using all the double-negatives though -- or hire an editor... LOL!)

Very cool interview.

Awesome find!!! little pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
Larry, do you have that number yet?

Thanks for the link. Can't listen to it since I'm work now, so I'll do it later when I get home. Can't wait to hear what the man has to say.

He made it CRYSTAL clear he wasn't with the band and doesn't speak with the band.....

Nothing that hasn't already been said about The Sopranos, DSB and the White Sox.

Man, he always sounds so horse these days. I fear that his singing days are truely over and this is why no new songs or recordings in so long. I wonder what happened ? Just age ? Did he start smoking or something !!

Youtube the "Strungout" video. He sounds "horse" there also, yet he belts that song out of the park.

Yes that is true I just checked and he does. Hmmm. Such a change from 82 to 84... I wonder if he damaged something in there. Herbie Herbert just stated that it changed. Nothing about damage... Will we ever know ? Why do I even care ? Got the old material to listen to...

And naturally the ever-present "I haven't been with the band since 1998..."

It's almost a drinking game. Every time SP says that ^ you have to do a shot.
(and have a LOT of liquor handy)

Pffff.

I love it when he says that, too.

As if Journey was fully functioning with him in 1997 and part of '98 and 89 and 90 and 91, 2, 3, 4 and '95 too.

I wouldnt speak to them fuckers either other than " make sure you make the check out to Steve Perry" bitches

Finely had a few minutes to listen to it. Love hearing Steve's voice and hearing him laugh. Love what he said about speaking through the lawyers when it comes to talking to the band these days. Kind of puts the nails in the coffin of any reunion.
